This is ok.
Is there any other way to find it out?
Thanks,

Hi,
My requirement is i have to execute a python script on a remote machine as a subprocess from a python script and to get the subprocess pid of the process running the script. Is there anyway to do that??
I have used subprocess.popen() method to do that. I have done as following:
executable = '/usr/bin/rsh'
args = [executable, hostname, scriptname]
pid = subprocess.popen(args)
It returned the pid of rsh. Buti am interested in the pid of the process running the script.
Can anyone help me out here?

Using os.getpid() you can find out the pid of thescript and communicate
it back to the caller.
